funny things people do when they’re blitzed

humorous things a liquid is capable of

you might laugh, i might laugh

shit, it’d be funny

if it weren’t me

but of course it is me

it always is me

clumsy ol’ me

and now the girl i love

the only girl i could ever imagine being satisfied with

the girl that is, much to my dismay

not remotely my girl

knows that i love her

and all of the sudden

i’m stuck in a game of poker

with my cards laid out and visible

i’ve yet to make the slightest connection with her

and my chances

if such negligible things ever existed

have been stamped ‘DISMISSIBLE’

what kind of game does it take

to win the girl you love

granted you’ve made

such a pathetically

laughably

irrevocable

mistake?
